This is version of "The Grouch" is a bit more right. Some other versions aren't very correct,
so I guess it should help (I heard that before... :).

Chords used:

E A D G B e
A 5 7 7 - - -
D - 5 7 7 - -
e 0 2 2 - - -
E - 7 9 9 - -
F# 2 4 4 - - -
D# - 6 8 8 - -

This is the main play:
A - e - A - D - A - e - D - e - A - e - A - D - A - e - A

This is the chorus part:
(F#- D - A - e - F#- D - A - E) x2
